Eisriesenwelt Ice Caves
8 октября 2017 г., Австрия ⋅ 🌧 6 °C
Time to leave Salzburg today, which meant we were homeless until we could check in at our next place after 3pm. It was also raining, so an indoor activity was required. What better activity than toЧитать далее

Snow!
7 октября 2017 г., Австрия ⋅ ⛅ 8 °C

Hot wine

Salzburg
6 октября 2017 г., Австрия ⋅ ⛅ 8 °C
A bit of a novelty this morning... We are staying in a newish compact hotel room with no self-catering facilities or fridge etc, which makes breakfast a bit more of an ordeal in some ways. The hotelЧитать далее
Heidi Land

Three countries - one day
5 октября 2017 г., Италия ⋅ 🌫 13 °C

Venezia

Venezia
3 октября 2017 г., Италия ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
More photos, because it such a photogenic city and I can't get enough of bridges, canals and skinny little streets you barely know are there until you have to turn down them!
Venice
3 октября 2017 г., Италия ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C
Leisurely start to the day (not sure how I am going to go back to 5.15am starts when I get back to Australia - positively uncivilised!), and then we started an epic day of leisurely meandering throughЧитать далее

30 сентября 2017 г., Италия ⋅ 🌙 20 °C
We made a traditional Tuscan pasta called pici which used to be hand-rolled by the ladies around the table as they had a gossip. These days, use a pasta machine - much faster.

San Gimigliano
30 сентября 2017 г., Италия ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C
